Written by a recently-retired Vice-President, View from the Corner Office covers the full gamut of what falls in the purview and under the watchful eyes of corporate management. It takes readers behind the scenes for a look at the planning process, performance management and customer negotiations. It looks at successful enterprises and failed strategies, companies that understood their capabilities and others overwhelmed by those of competitors.
